First: No Mining Monday today. It’ll be back next week. Second: I made a saute peppers, onions, spinach and humus sandwich today and it was delicious. Third: I have a rather paltry DVD collection; I hate spending money on DVDs, so I have to really LOVE a movie for me to buy it. I’ve watched [...]

Most of my friends are older than me, but some are the same age. They’re all much cooler with the quarter-life-crisis crap than I am, and I have more than seven months to go. This isn’t a surprise, I’ve always been a worrier. But enough about me (for once). This isn’t my birthday (it’s Gina’s [...]

Gaaahh, Pens game tonight was excellent. More on that tomorrow. I really do hate these short, beating-the-clock blog posts. I hope you consider my bigger ones as make ups. I told my friend April tonight about my blog and that I had to write something before midnight. She gave me the weirdest look but said [...]

My Netflix queue needs a little shaking up. Offer up any suggestions you got. Comedies and dramas of the indie persuasion are typically what I prefer, but I’ll watch pretty much anything. The only things I’m not a fan of are 1) senseless, plotless violent movies and 2) anything with Rob Schneider. Have at it.

Things I’m Thankful For: Hulu. Because I’ll never have to get cable again. Sweet potatoes. With caramelized pecans on top. $20 co-pays and generic prescriptions. I’ve never been so grateful for it as I am now. That it hasn’t snowed yet this year. Keep winter at bay as much as possible. That I’m a non-smoker. [...]

I just found out tonight that instead of having dinner tomorrow in the mid-afternoon like we usually do, it’s going to be at noon tomorrow. Noon sharp, I was told. Apparently everyone in my family has a second dinner to go to later. This means I need to get there by 11 am, so the [...]

Confession: Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday and I keep forgetting it’s only days away. My mom put me on green bean casserole duty and when I mentioned making it to her over the phone yesterday, I said “next week.” She was pretty quick to correct me that it is this week, and I tried to [...]

I have to be completely honest: I don’t feel like blogging today, even though it’s Mining Monday, my favorite blogging day of the week. I almost forgot that I had to blog today at all, despite the fact I’ve been doing it for the past 23 days. I just want to curl up with a [...]

You’d like to think that some nights will result in Dude-Where’s-My-Adventures-in-Babysitting-Infinite-Playlist shenanigans where you find the love of your life (a heavy metal drummer with a heart of gold), your friend realizes she’s engaged to the wrong guy and ends up with a millionaire disguised as a homeless man and your other friend (who said [...]

“What kind of people can you love?” “Any kind.” If that doesn’t make your heart melt, then I’m sorry, you must not have one.
